Here's your Christmas cards cheatsheet -->🎄📬


Hey Reader!

Between the rain, pumpkin muffins, Gilmore Girls (& the line up of full memory cards on my desk! 📸) this week ... I'm saying Autumn is officially here!! 🍂☕️

That ⬆️ AND I found a Christmas card in my mailbox! 😳

Don’t panic, it was only an ad!

However, it did get me thinking, it’s time to start prepping for that! And in case you received the same pretend Christmas card from the Johnson’s this week or …

If you’ve ever found yourself scrambling mid-December to design, print, and send them before the mail cut-off or …

Wondered if you could somehow spin it to be a Happy New Year's card—only to send them out in February (guilty 🙋‍♀️)—then I’ve got a blog for you!

In it, I walk you through the simplest way to create your Christmas cards—step by step—so you can cross them off your list before things get too busy. Plus, sharing a few design pointers!

Here’s the sparknotes for you:

And if you would like a full step-by-step checklist that you can print & check off as you go to keep motivation high, then you can snag it for free in the blog!

This is exactly the moment when momentum is already on your side.
You’re in end-of-year wrap up mode, finish well, family photos are on the calendar, and everyone’s starting to think about holiday mail.

It’s time to get on it! Your future self will thank you when she’s sipping eggnog in December with cards already in the mail. 🎄📬

And if you still need your Christmas Card Pictures …

It can be so hard to find time for photos ... especially in the throws of the holiday season!!

⬆️ I hear that from moms all the time.

That’s exactly why my 20 minute mini sessions are designed for busy families with young children.

It’s this simple…

  1. Look at the dates & book your mini session
  2. Put together your family’s outfits using my *shoppable* style guides
  3. Leave your session with happy kids, a happy husband, and dreamy photos

So instead of feeling frazzled and overwhelmed by family photos this fall …

You get to be the mom who easily captures your family’s legacy.

And have every milestone with your littles captured.

I only have a few more mini sessions dates for the rest of the year!

You can learn more & book your photos here:

Let's make this one of the easier to-dos on your list this fall!

Warmly,

P.S. If you use the blog to design your cards, send me a photo of the finished product … I’d love to see them it the wild! 🎄💌
